Uma abordagem humano computacional para identificação dos fatores que influenciam o IDEB na rede de ensino básico na visão dos gestores educacionais

Abstract

The search for effective resource allocation in order to reach the largest number of people is the constant challenge of the public manager. Thus, this work aims to identify which factors, perceived by educational managers, impact on the IDEB of the municipal schools of Maceió-Alagoas. The initial data worked on in this research already exist, but they need to be analysed in view of the daily reality of the school environment, establishing a relationship between the perception of managers and the results disseminated by INEP/MEC. Thus, the central question that guides this study arises: how to integrate the computational vision (machine) with the vision of educational managers (human) in order to identify the factors that may positively influence the improvement of the IDEB, aiming at supporting the decision making of educational managers? For this, data from the SAEB test of the public schools of Maceió were used. This research has a descriptive character and the methodological development of the research comes from the literature review, the analysis and compilation of data on the performance of students of the initial years of primary schools in the Maceió-Alagoas municipal school network in the IDEB of 2015, and from the carrying out of interviews with school headmasters, in order to understand the impressions of school management on the results of the IDEB, conducting an experimental study, obtaining results in the task of identifying the relevant attributes, such as those extracted by computer vision mainly in the dimensions: violence at school; policies, actions and programs at school; school management and financial resources. In the perception of school managers, the following attributes are observed as relevant for the improvement of IDEB: the level of schooling of the manager, the process of elaboration of the pedagogical project of the school, measures to reduce failure rates, measures to minimise student absences, improvement in school-family communication, the issue of school meals, support from higher levels, financial resources to finance the expenses, the MEC didactic guide and the choices of textbooks by teachers.
